Alex's Blog

You know there are very few times in anyones life when you can just lay around, do nothing, and have everyone take care of you 24/7. I think being 4 1/2 months old is one of those times. Apparently my dad thinks that I should be doing things for myself. Check out this vid:

OMG! It has been soooo crazy around here! The summer has just flown by. I have been so busy that I don't even have time to blog. Seriously, how bad is that? Where would we be without blogging? I don't know how they survived back in the 20th century. I don't think anyone talked to anyone else - ever. They never had email, blogging, texting, facebook - nothing. (that's so weird to even think of the 20th century, I mean, it was a whole century ago, people who were alive back then, are still around today - weird, right?) Anyway, before I get too into my blog let me just get Sammy's cameo shot out of the way. He has been so nice to me since I got here, he just likes being around me. In fact, lots of people like being around me. The older I get, the more I think that it's a good thing I'm here because I give these people something to do - and they love me for it. Look at this shot of my dad grinning like Cheshire cat: And then my grandma and grandpa keep coming o...

Happy Fathers Day Daddy!! Love, Alex and Sammy

Alright, I know I haven't posted in like a month, but it has been crazy around here, I mean, my parents are such losers. Why do they need eight hours of sleep at night? It's so unfair, they get to do all the fun stuff like leave the house on their own and...walk. And all I do is lay in the crib, or in the stroller, or in the car seat, or in.... ...sorry dozed off for a second What was I saying? Oh yeah, my lame parents - I mean, you'd think they've never pulled an all-nighter in their life (I know for a fact that's not true). Take last night for example, I slept from 9:30 to 11, they should've taken a nap then. Why do I have to go back to sleep after that? Look at this picture, I mean they don't even try anymore, they just sleep right next to me. I mean, really, I'm practically taking care of them. Then, they just plop me down on the couch and let me sit there wondering if anyone is going to feed me or change me. I don't remember when this picture wa...

I know its been a while since I last posted, but it has just been so crazy around here. People keep coming over and they all want to hold me, kiss me, take pictures of me, and (this is the best part) bring me gifts! Apparently there are a lot of people in my life and they all love me. Check out these pictures: But enough about them, let me show you around my crib--I ain't talking about a baby crib, I'm talking about my Crib. I got a lot of cool stuff and I've been playing around with all of it the last few days. Check out my sweet ride: Of course I'm a YUBbie (Yuppie Urban Baby) so I have more than one ride, here's my other one: When I'm tired, I got a phat bed (or is it a fat bed); Oh yeah, remember the roommate I told you about, well he's not as bad as I thought he would be. In fact we are now BFFs. Look at us here: I do have one complaint. I haven't seen the TV in a while so I haven't been watching CNN--and the best political team on televis...

Another busy day. So get this, I'm in a place where trained professionals with lots of education and experience are on call 24 hours a day to take care of whatever I need, and these two people, we'll call them Mom and Dad, with absolutely no child raising experience whatsoever are going to take me out of here. I mean, this deal just gets worse all the time. I did figure out one thing though, if I open my mouth and try to make the loudest noise that I can, one of these two come running with whatever I need. The louder I can get, the quicker they react--I wonder if that will come in handy one day, I guess I'll just keep trying. One more thing, I found out what Dad actually does, apparently he has nothing else to do but take pictures. Wow! He's got it made, I mean how hard is it to point the camera and push a button . Here's one of he and I right now: Look at him smiling , like a happy little fool, he has no idea what is in store for him. I already have him wrapped ar...

Wow! You think you had a bad day! It started out normal enough, though I started to wish that I had some more space. Talk about being careful what you wish for. As I sat in my place--you know, your typical fluid filled, anti-gravitational, sensory deprived sack of waters--I started to think that I wanted more. Don't get me wrong the rent was great, all utilities included, I never had to clean up, and the best part was a 24/7 all you can eat buffet! It was fine, all the kids my age had basically the same set up, but something was telling me that there was more and I just had to find out what it was. Then, as if someone from above heard my prayers, a bright light appeared. I went toward it and that's when everything changed. Suddenly, (at exactly 12:16 pm on April 8, 2008) I was cold, I was hungry, it was bright, and it was loud. At that instant I started to yearn for my old place back, but, get this, they changed the lock on me! I couldn't get back. I mean, I knew the housin...
